Crash + six times over limit = no licence

A woman will face court after being detected at more than six times over the legal limit.

Police located the car stopped on Maroong Avenue and breath tested the driver who returned an alleged blood alcohol reading of 0.315 – more than six times the legal limit.

Further enquiries revealed the driver had allegedly crashed into a Toyota sedan parked on nearby Farrell Street before witnesses reported the Subaru driving off.

The 35-year-old from Glenelg was reported for drink driving, driving without due care and leaving the scene of a crash. She will be summonsed to appear in court at a later date.

The woman was also issued with an immediate 12 month loss of licence and her car was towed from the scene.
